pringles-select.jpgI normally avoid junk food but I’m such a sucker for “limited edition” or “NEW!” products that sometimes I have to give in. I just love it when a company puts a new spin on a classic.

As I checked out of the grocery store today the conveyor belt was lined with my usual selection of organic varieties of soups, eggs, yogurt, cereals and fruits and veggies. And last but not least…. Pringles.

I couldn’t help it. I mean, who doesn’t love Pringles? They are addictive and delicious. I am normally not too tempted by a can of Pringles but in this case it wasn’t a can that swayed me. It was a BAG! That’s right… Pringles are now available tube-free.

I had to try the Pringles SELECT variety. They come in a variety of yummy flavors including Cinnamon Sweet Potato (which I can’t wait to try next!) but I choose Parmesan Garlic. The description reads: “Like a Parmesan cheese wheel rolling through a garlic patch.” Awesome.

“Freshly grated Parmesan cheese and faint hints of garlic will have your stomach talking and your mouth watering. And when you get a taste of this delicious flavor, your inability to speak will say it all. The enticing zest will zing your taste buds with the kind of pleasure only connoisseur can truly appreciate.”

I also discovered a snack bag of Pringles Minis. The bag boasts that they are “Mini Sized but Major Fun.”

I was so excited to try these varieties that I opened them in the car on the way home from the store. The Select Parmesan chips are so amazing that I had to throw the bag away to avoid eating them all in one sitting. The Pringles Minis are good but I wouldn’t say they are “Major Fun.” They are just smaller versions of the classic.

I got my bags (so cool to say that they are Pringles BAGS!) at the local Acme. I would imagine that most stores will have them in stock soon, if not already.

Final Dish: Just because something is in the trash doesn’t mean it isn’t good. Sometimes it’s TOO good.

Comment Guidelines
Be Respectful. Do you kiss your mother with that mouth?

Although the old saying, "If you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all," is swell, we encourage constructive feedback (ie, be polite), and recommend backing-up your comments with evidence/witnesses.

Be Honest. Look where it got Abe Lincoln. Well, before the evening at the theater.

We don't recommend complaining just for the sake of it (see number 1), but if you have a legitimate comment, it should be shared. Also, don't hesitate to disagree with other comments, even if your opinion is in the minority. If patrons aren't honest about their experiences, restaurants won't know that there is room for improvement. And there always is.

Be Specific. "The food was good" doesn't cut it.

Each dining experience is unique, so if a dining experience moves you in any way, by all means, share the details. Choose the sensory details that impacted your experience the most and describe them in your postings. Other foodies will gobble it up—literally.

Be Concise. 'Nuf said.

What? We thought it was pretty clear the first time.

Be Helpful. Sort of like how the elves and reindeer help Santa.

Will what you have to say improve the restaurant's ability to provide impeccable service and improve the dining experience for others (again, see number 1)? If so... help away.

Show a Little Pride. No Jane or John Does please.

If you are too embarrassed to put your name as the commenter, you probably should re-evaluate your comments (you know the drill... see number 1). If you have sensitive information that you feel needs to be passed along, please use your best judgment and e-mail it to us to avoid public posting. We don't want you to have any post-post regrets.

Don't Name Names. Let's not get too personal here.

We know you want to share your experiences, both good and bad, but this isn't the place to publicly condemn or praise individual people. Feel free to comment on "the service", "the chef", or "the staff", but any positive or negative mention of specific names will be moderated.
